What is MTF?
Margin Trading Facility (MTF) allows you to buy stocks by paying only a part of the total amount upfront, while the rest is funded by 5paisa. It’s a smart way to leverage your capital and take delivery of stocks without paying the full amount on day one.
Key Benefits of using MTF
Up to 4X buying Power
Boost your purchasing capacity by up to 4X using collateral. Trade bigger without needing full cash upfront.
Cashless Trading
Pledge approved stocks as margin instead of cash. Buy shares without selling your current holdings.
Flexible Order Placement
Choose ‘Delivery’ or ‘MTF’ while placing orders. Switch seamlessly based on your funding preference.
Unlimited Holding Period
No forced square-offs. Hold positions indefinitely and convert to delivery when you’re ready.
Scrip Eligibility Transparency
